What make and model is this radio?

24 hour rule please - let everyone play.

You can jump in and tell us if you have ever owned one. :headphones:

Maybe a HealthKit SB-102 or HW-101?

Oops, I posted too soon, and this is edited to undo that. But I know what it is.

Is there a way to delete my own message, Wade?

In the lower right hand corner of the post box is a set of controls. One is labeled "Edit" and if you click on that you are given the option of deleting the post or just editing it.

The editing screen will have 4 buttons, Save, Go Advanced, Delete, Cancel. You'll see them.

Nope, only three: Save, Go Advanced, and Cancel. Maybe the Delete appears only for moderators.

HMmmm...

Well I know what it's not, but not what it is.

I'd guess the 24 hour rule holds for ruling out rigs too.

The nice component silkscreen gives some hints...

Oh I don't know... one could say it's not a Drake, or a Collins. Because it isn't. :headphones: Besides, it's been 24 hours already.

Definitely a Hot Water 101.

I'd take a guess but what are those glass things with the pointed tops?

OK then, how about one of these:

24 hour rule, please. For the newbies, wait 24 hours before actually answering the question, puzzle, whatever, so that all active members can play along. Comments are OK, just don't give away the answers.

Took a few minutes and made a "Please 24 hour rule" sign. It's in the smiley catalog as
: 2 4 :
without the spaces.

Looks to Me like someone got a bit "CREATIVE" with the lighting ;-) .

I found the artwork, stole it, and added the text.

Back on topic, any guesses on the 2nd rig?

I pass, no clue -- although the final-stage cage looks like some kind of Heathkit.

Hint: It's not a Heathkit, but if you had the money back then you could buy this receiver for more than a HW-101 of that era would cost.

It is! A Drake R4C to be exact!

Play again? Anybody want to put up a pic?

Only if "staring at it ignorantly" is the same as "looking at it".
